Notes:
A loose connection to the recorder, which i assume was caused by me knocking the atenuator (first time using it),
resulted in some phasing/channels dropping out, buzzing, during the following -
0:09 - 0:22 of "(Intro)"
0:13 - 0:19 & 6:00 - 6:02 of "I'm Jim Morrison, I'm Dead"
7:31 - 7:33 of "I Love You, I'm Going To Blow Up Your School"
0:25 - 0:27 "I Know You Are But What Am I?"

Most of these errors were quite short in duration and i really don't know of anything i could have done to improve them,
so i'll just make a note of it here.

Also, the left channel was missing (for the same reason) for most of the first 2:30 mins, as well as for a few seconds at
4:04 and 4:38 of "The Precipice". For this i copied the right channel over to the left to try and make it more listenable.

Live and learn, as they say.

Subject: Thank's for this good recording
One of the best gig i've heard for an not bad sound and a very good set-list with new songs and older.
A 2 hours live with Mogwai is not frequent! The equalisation is a to much in hight-medium, the bass is not very present, it's a pity.

Thanks for this moment!

Definitely have to agree on the excellent sound, especially for Mogwai. I can't imagine how hard it must be to capture their music while still dealing with how loud the show is.

cannot wait to see them when they come to the states.
